Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

Is it really Friday and Saturday? I am going to be in Robbinsville on Sunday. Would have liked to have gone.

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

Yes awards are handed out on Saturday. A bunch are going up today. I'm taking the 2 trucks up Saturday morning early.
He has a bunch of vendors setup selling truck parts and old vintage signs and auto related stuff.:chevy:

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

Too far for me!

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

So how many NATIONALS are there throughout the year in various places?

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

Several because there are so many C-10 not one show can handle them all. Plus some are to far to drive to.:chevy:

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

I'll Probably go. What time Saturday for start? I work Friday

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

I'm a member and will be up there Sat but not with my truck(hopefully next year).

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

OK. The website says Friday 8-6 and Sat 8-4 for everyone going

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

Wow, it is 7 hours from me. I would have loved to go but too short of a time frame to get there!

Good luck all :)

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

Sorry I just came in from working on the truck and the ramp to get them ready for aturday morning. Leaving out earrrrly to get there by 8am I hope.
Several members left today and went up.:chevy:

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

I got the ramp & 71 truck ready for the ride to Maggie Valley tomorrow, Wish me luck... the ramp has never gone on this far of a trip.
Got all the bikes loaded. I picked up another chopper Tuesday and a fat tire Mongoose today with 7 speed which later on this year will swap over to my chopper! :chevy:

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

I just drove through there on my way back to Utah. I wish I had known...

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

Week to late for me. I was in the area last Friday.

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

I'd like to see the car and truck shows go back to the way they used to be , 1 winner with a check for $500.00 or a $1,000.00 , They could probably still do it that way if they stopped giving away participation trophies .:chevy:

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

I wanted to make it out this year, but I had a new blessing come about a week ago. And as far as trophies go, I’ll never be able to spend enough on my truck to compete with a lot of guys. Trophies don’t mean squat. It’s about comradare and spending time with family.

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

OH ! you got a new one , Mines 36 wanna trade ? :lol:

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

Well, I only have 3 years on your son lol. I’m gonna be a grandpa at my two youngest boys high school graduations

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

My daughter and grandson drove the 71 up and I drove the ramp truck. They both did fine but the ramp lost 4 quarts of oil on the trip. The bottom of the motor is covered in oil. I think the oil pan gasket is shot!
The 71 brought another trophy home too! 4 years running! There was over 140 trucks there today.
I registered the ramp and I put my daughter's name on the 71. She was tickeled to have her name called out.:chevy:

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

I was wondering the same thing. Everybody seems to have a "national" event. It's ridiculous at this point.

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

That's neat she got to receive the trophy. I bet your grandson got excited. How ws the turn out? Get any pictures, or did anyone?

They find a word to use to make it sound bigger and now that's the trend. The fact is, if a show is too far to drive to it is regional, not national. But I guess that doesn't pack enough punch, or maybe too honest for a promoter? When are the C30, C20, K5, K10, and K20 Nationals? Is there a show for GMCs, like a C1500 National anywhere? :lol:

All said and done after maybe a better name, I bet the show was pretty good like the old show at Maggie Valley, even with another Nationals across Tennessee the same weekend (in the same region)

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

The Nashville show was huge and awesome , wish they were at different times .

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

Chuckles, 72Bluz RIP, invited me to join him at Maggie Valley one year and I really regret not making that show.
I think I'd really like to make the Nashville one some time.

Re: C 10 Nationals Maggie Valley NC
 

The show was over 150 C-10's are at least that's what I herd anyway!

National has nothing to do with driving time. I don't think the promoter cares how far you have to drive. I think it's jut a name that draws people.
I'm glad there are several shows this way I don't have to drive for a whole day to get there and spend a fortune to go.
The swap meet was good also.
Ole red done good but the ramp had more conversation's with folks but the judges didn't like it I guess, which it's not really a C 10!:chevy:
